William Anders'The vast loneliness up here at the moon is awe-inspiring, and it makes you realize what you have back there on Earth. The Earth from here is a grand oasis in the big vastness of space.' James Lovell (live telecast from lunar orbit)'The view of the Earth from the Moon fascinated me, a small disk, 240,000 miles away.

The Lunar Module, or the "ugly bug" as it was often called, was built of wafer-thin metal. A vehicle intended solely for use in space, it was so frail that its flanks would crumple if subjected to flight in Earth's lower atmosphere. Apollo 9 was the only mission where the beauty of the Earth served as a backdrop for the Lunar Module and the Command Module in flight.

Cosmonauts Gagarin and Titov were the only humans who had orbited the Earth prior to the Mercury Atlas 4 mission but none of them took photographs from their orbiting spacecraft (Gherman Titov had exposed a small amount of motion picture film during his August 1961 flight); therefore this historic image is the first photograph from space taken from an orbiting spacecraft.Condition Report: Few light finger prints, some expected age toning, overall very goodCondition Report Disclaimer

'It was surprising to me how much at home I felt in Eagle because of all the simulations we had done back home. The view of the Moon from the surface and the EVA itself have much less reality to me now than have those familiar operations inside Eagle' Buzz Aldrin

Neil Armstrong or Buzz AldrinThe area of lunar surface including the Sea of Tranquillity which would soon become the landing site for the 'Eagle', as seen from orbit and prior to the undocking and descent of the Lunar Module 20 July 1969Vintage gelatin silver print on fibre-based Kodak paper, 25.5 x 20.3 cm (10 x 8 in), BLACK NUMBERED AS11-37-5437, on A KODAK PAPER watermarked stock, NASA MSC caption mimeographed on verso Footnotes:The photograph was taken at the start of the lunar day which is why the upper portion of the surface is still dark. The landing site is located just right of centre at the edge of the darkness. The crater Maskelyne is prominent at the lower right. The shadow seen on the surface is that of the spacecraft's thruster.On 8 February 1968, NASA's Apollo Site Selection Board announced five potential landing sites. These prospective sites were the product of two years of study of high-resolution photography. The landing site needed to be close to the lunar equator to minimize the amount of propellant required, clear of obstacles to keep complex manoeuvring to a minimum, and flat to simplify the actual process of landing. The initial requirement that the site be free of craters had to be relaxed, as this proved impossible.  Condition Report: A handling crack to the upper right corner (2 x 2 cm), and a very small crease to upper left corner (0.5 cm), otherwise very good.

I cannot recall the Moon's tortured surface without thinking of the infinite variety the delightful planet Earth offers.' Michael CollinsCondition Report: Very goodCondition Report Disclaimer

The CM can be seen near the centre of the second photograph, with the sharp-rimmed crater Schmidt directly right of it. 'I guess the question that everyone has in the back of his mind is how do I feel about having to leave them on the lunar surface? ... They know and I know, and Mission Control knows that there are certain categories of malfunction where I just simply light the motor and come home without them.'

[...] there is no place on Earth as desolate as what I was viewing in those first moments on the lunar surface. Because I realized what I was looking at, towards the horizon and in every direction, had not changed in hundreds, thousands of years. Beyond me I could see the Moon curving away-no atmosphere, black sky. Cold. Colder than anyone could experience on Earth when the Sun is up [...] No sign of life whatsoever. That is desolate. More desolate than any place on Earth.'

Armstrong: 'Okay. Your PLSS... looks like it is clearing okay. The shoes are about to come over the sill. Okay now drop your PLSS down...'
